Loppybogymi (pronounced LAH-pee-bow-JYE-me, often just shortened to "Loppy") was a Mobile, Alabama-based alternative metal band made up of Tim Ramenofsky (vocals, guitar), James Orr (bass, vocals), and Gregory Slay (drums, vocals).[1]
History
[edit]Formation
[edit]Loppybogymi was formed in Mobile, Alabama by Tim Ramenofsky, James Orr, and Gregory Slay in 1988. Frustrated by lack of national exposure [2] the band relocated to Nashville, Tennessee in September 1991.
